Holly Miller is home in Wagtail for the holidays! Inspired by her German heritage, Holly’s grandmother, Oma, has arranged for the town to have a Christkindl Market with adorable booths selling goodies, decorations, and visitors to come from out of town to enjoy the market and howliday festivities. But Holly’s Christmas joy is nearly stolen when she learns that her old flame and childhood friend Holmes Richardson has brought his fiancé home for the holidays, and they’ll be staying at the Sugar Maple Inn!

Only, a love triangle is the last thing on Holly’s mind after her nose for trouble leads to the corpse of a beloved, pet-clothing business tycoon. It’s up to Holly and her dedicated detectives—Trixie the Jack Russell and Twinkletoes the cat—to snoop for the killer.
